Tired of the daily news doom and gloom? Looking to explore curious stories from weird corners of the internet? Every Monday through Thursday, The Outline World Dispatch brings you stories about Power, Culture, and the Future. We guarantee you’ll feel smarter and more hydrated. Hosted by yours truly.

One of my favorite things about Gaby Del Valle, whose great work you may have seen across The Outline, is that she asks really good questions. She caught up with Lil Yachty at a Reebok event for New York Fashion Week and instead of asking the usual (“What does fashion mean to you?”), took some time to get the real goods, inspired by a headband Yachty rocked at the event.

This episode of the show is even more special because Joshua Topolsky stopped by to talk about a photo that brought him back to his young nerdy days. Pop those earbuds in — this is a good one.
